    Kilt, can you be a genius without loving teddy bears?

    I have no teddy bears, I have action figures which have a soft covering

    And an untidy desk is always an indicator of a genius at work, right?

    I also had trouble navigating LitNet at first because I've never joined a forum before. Robin, mostly, helped Toni and I with our probs. He's just a PM away. Ever so kind. So because of Robin, I AM A DAMN GENIUS!!!

    Messy and creative, as they say.... But I've never been messy!

    I like to define genius by the individual fulfillment of potential. Sort of a "It's not what you have, but what you do with it" skill. For example, if Anton took the time to find out the workings of the forum and master it like so many here have already, he may be a "genius" as well. But like someone stated here earlier, there are many types of "genius".
    Sorry...that was pretty random
    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

    I'm not a genius, but I am persistent, it took me years to figure out this site.

    And when I finally did, I forgot it all over again, my desk is very tidy too. But still in a big box, as it requires assembly, and I'm not smart enough to figure out how to open the box.

    But it works great as a seat...

    You know what is really hilarious? I just found out I have a blog and I didn't even know it. XD I remember almost making one, maybe that's when I made one without knowing it.

    This fellow, however, has no luck at all.

    You could have vast knowledge in majority of things, yet not in navigating the site. (I mean how hard could staring at the screen, finding the text and clicking on it with the mouse?)

    I have regular IQ but that doesn't stop me from learning...

    So the genius should've made an effort of learning rather than writing a mail to the admins...

    Maybe he has... but with that IQ, he should've figured it out by now...

    Beware the man who tells you that he has a 'certified high IQ' without saying a number.

    heehee and i thought I was rude but compared to the way you guys have bashed poor Anton, I'm almost a lamb

    well, if Anton thinks lit net is the most user-unfriendly forum he's ever seen, he can't have seen many forums.
    I've seen much worse,.. can you imagine that this kind of thing is actually called a "forum"? (click where it says "Forum besuchen" and choose one of the categories to see what I mean
    it's just a random example of a badly structured "forum", i don't mean to detract from it in any way in terms of its content)

    I highly doubt the validity of him taking an IQ test at all.
